SOBI2 fo Community Builder

Introduction

The CB SOBI2 Plugin shows the SOBI2 entries of a user in a Community Builder Tab. It has been based on the original version for CB 1.1 by Derek Fernandes and Radek Suski and has been upgraded to use CB 1.2 and Joomla 1.5.

It works just like it says, the only slight issue (and this is not much of an issue) is when I look at the tab on google chrome, under the catigory section where it adds the bullet point, it adds a second bullet point, but besides that, this is an awesome plugin, a must have for those who use both community builder and sobi2. Thanks for creating this.

This does exactly what it says. What would be really useful would be if it showed the parent categories of sub categories that are listed. As far as I can tell, it only displays sub-categories and not the parent categories they belong to. Otherwise excellent!

The plug works as far as displaying a tab and linking a CB user to their Sobi listings, but the EDIT and DELETE buttons in the CB tab do not work and instead take you to an error "page does not exist". I have been unable to get any help resolving this issue.

Owner's reply:
I am sorry you have been having problems with my free plugin, you are the first person to experience this issue.

I am also sorry that you feel you "have been unable to get any help" even though I responded to both your emails within 24 hours. Did you actually try my last suggestion?

I hope you manage to resolve your problem and I wish you every success with your site!

Have just downloaded and installed this component. It took me all of about 5 mins (was i too slow :P ) and all existing entries show in the CB user profile under a 'Sobi' tab. Thanks Neo and Trin.... ;)

P.S. Are you guys going to make a plug in where users CB fields will automatically fill the corresponding SOBI form fields like name, email, phone number etc. It would sure make form filling for users less time consuming :)

MooTools (requires 1.2 Core)
Dojo Toolkit
Yahoo! User Interface Library (requires yahoo-dom-event.js)

The simplest way to tell Shadowbox which links you want it to open is to add a rel="shadowbox" (or rel="lightbox") attribute to each link. See the documentation for full usage instructions.

The MySQL field type plugin adds a "MySQL Field" to the available list of CB fields. It does not actually add a new field to the database and cannot be edited by the user. It simply queries the database and displays the result of a MySQL statement. Another Community Builder field can be defined for saving the result of the query if required.
You can choose whether the query will return a single result or multiple and define up to 5 parts of the MySQL query including the SELECT, the FROM, the WHERE, the ORDER BY and the LIMIT clause. You can use {USERID} and {VIEWERID} in the MySQL statement which get substituted for the user’s ID and viewer’s ID of the currently viewed profile. You can restrict the query to only execute for the user and/or viewer as well as add a prefix, delimiter and suffix to the output. You can also choose to use CB field substitutions of the user or viewer with the field name in square brackets like [id] and [cb_fieldname].
Installation Instructions
Install the plugin through the CB Plugin Management page
Publish the plugin on the CB Plugin Management page
Add a new “MySQL Field” type from the CB Field Management page
